    I don't mean to paint with a broad brush, but every marine that saw ground combat in Afghanistan is an unstable PTSD riddled psychopath.

    Please provide evidence for your claim that not every marine that saw ground combat in Afghanistan is an unstable PTSD riddled psychopath.

    not to go murder people

    The job description is quite literally either to murder people, or support those who murder people. There are no military jobs that are without blood on their hands, directly or indirectly.

    Even if someone signed up for money and benefits, they signed up for a job specifically about murder.

    even in the words of military recruiters themselves, they'll say that every job, no matter what it is, is about "supporting the mission" (mission being murder, of course). and they're not wrong about that. every single soldier has red hands.

    No you literally cannot support members of the military while not supporting the military.

    And the whole "didnt see combat" line is total horseshit.

    You know what the people who didn't see combat were doing? Signing off on reports that those 12 years olds were deffinitly enemy combatants and not civilians casualties and figuring out the logistics of how to get bullets from the factory into the heads of innocent farmers as quickly as possible.

  • I didn't take a job at the torture factory because I like the suffering, I did it because I felt like I could take advantage of all the atrocities for personal gain

    Just interactions with troops and vets would start with them apologizing for assisting the imperial war machine.
